New series starts tonight with a challenge Bev will love. A race from London to Edinburgh between the presenters, with James May in a glorious Jaguar XK120, Richard Hammond on a Vincent Black Shadow motorbike and, best of all, Clarkson in blue overalls shovelling coal into the boiler of the Tornado steam train all the way.

Clarkson has said they're revealing The Stig's identity this evening, and it will be a 'staggering surprise'.

Considering it was essentially confirmed as Ben Collins months ago (among many other drivers they've blatantly used for certain challenges), this is purely to bump up the viewing figures... I expect it to be a comedy reveal.

The FXX is indeed awesome, but it's not road legal, so it doesn't deserve to go on that list. One was customised to be road legal (in Germany), but they don't have ground clearance restrictions. But even if FXXs were road legal, it wouldn't get over a speed bump, so according to Top Gear rules it shouldn't go the board.

However, considering how close it is to being road legal, the 1:10 is incredible - only two seconds off the DBR9 - a full FIA GT1 spec race car.
